>After a lifetime spent in intergalactic warfare, one would think he'd at least have a pension. When Vader hocks his sabre, the economy must terrible. Force suspended, indeed.
>now you see where the heros of the galaxies end up…lolcool take on the prompt jerry
>That was perfect for the photo prompt, Jerry!

>So sad, so true,so good.
>Hopefully the force will return whe he hits those tremolos. So much said here Jerry!
